  How can I draw a 5 min bar candle over 1 min bar chart? (see attachment yellow box)

  If I am setting DefParam DrawOnLastBarOnly = true then the following code shows the rigth solution. How can I addapt this code for the hole chart, not only the last 5 bars?

  Draw 5 minutes bar candles over 1 minute bar chart

  DefParam DrawOnLastBarOnly = true hh5 = highest[5](high) ll5 = lowest[5](low) a=0 for i = 0 to 4 do x1 = barindex[a] x2 = x1 -4 DRAWRECTANGLE(x1,ll5,x2,hh5)coloured(255,255,0,275) next

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

  DefParam DrawOnLastBarOnly = true   hh5 = highest[5](high) ll5 = lowest[5](low)   a=0 for i = 0 to 4 do x1 = barindex[a] x2 = x1 -4 DRAWRECTANGLE(x1,ll5,x2,hh5)coloured(255,255,0,275) next

   

  Thanks for your support.

  Check if  this simple code does the job :

  //plot 5min open-close box over 1 min chart timeframe(5mn,updateonclose ) m5open = open m5close = close timeframe(default) if openminute mod 5 = 0 then if m5open < m5close then r=0 g=255 else r=200 g=0 endif drawrectangle(barindex-5, m5open, barindex-1, m5close) coloured(r,g,0,32) bordercolor(r,g,0,60) endif return

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19

  //plot 5min open-close box over 1 min chart   timeframe(5mn,updateonclose ) m5open = open m5close = close   timeframe(default) if  openminute mod 5 = 0 then if m5open < m5close then r=0 g=255 else r=200 g=0 endif drawrectangle(barindex-5, m5open, barindex-1, m5close) coloured(r,g,0,32) bordercolor(r,g,0,60) endif   return

  Just run it on 1 minute chart. Hope it helps!
